Remove any leaves, stems, pips or skin and cut your fruit into small chunks. Discard any that have bruises.

Right-o.

Gold, her careful inspect of the two strawberries complete, rinsed her hands again before she picked up a knife. Having done which, she paused in a smallish, unsure-ish way. She wasn't sure if they were supposed to work with magic, or muggle-style.

She was going to ask Professor Dodson for clarification, but several moments of thought later, she decided magic had to be allowed. Because, you know, this wasn't the Muggle Studies classroom. Not to mention, the strawberries themselves were basically a product of magic. They wouldn't have been here, right now, if they hadn't used charm-work.

Which was why Gold set her knife to work, watching as it chopped away, cutting up chunks of the huuuuge strawberries. Since the blossoms were very large, the chunks ended up being bigger than normal-sized chunks, too. Gold decided to re-cut them, to make them a bit smaller.

She wanted to taaaaste this jam.

Place your chunks of fruit into the cauldron and crush slightly.

Now, for the next step.

Gold flicked her wand, causing the knife to cease its methodical cutting. Setting it aside, after she had given it a quick rinse, she gathered the strawberry chunks. Then she placed them in the cauldron, as per the instructions, and proceeded to crush them.

For which, of course, she used magic again. Because it made the task much less time-confusing.
